Services

  • Our corporate team’s experience in refinancing corporate borrowings will empower your company to optimise its debt structures and enhance cash flow management. We will help you navigate the process in a smooth fashion to secure your company’s financial stability.

  • Corporate restructuring can have numerous strategic, tax and commercial benefits. We are experts in executing:

    • Share for share exchanges: to allow for a strategic group reorganisation

    • Incorporation of Family Investment Companies: to take advantage of the tax benefits this model offers

    • Employee share schemes (or “EMIs”): to reward hard-working employees in a way that mitigates your tax liabilities

  • Covering both contentious and non-contentious insolvency, our expertise stretches across all stages of a corporate insolvency matter. This includes legal and strategic advice prior to, and after, legal proceedings have commenced.

    When dealing with contentious insolvency, such as challenging transactions, gratuitous alienations and wrongful trading, as well as non-contentious insolvency, such as advising creditors on recovery of debts or the sale of a business in distress, we recognise the profound effects insolvency issues can have on creditors and debtors. Our team of experts look to act as swiftly as possible in order to achieve a satisfactory outcome.
